Afternoon Delight (2013)

A well put-together drama - well-acted, directed - but it boils down to 'a privileged couple realise they need to connect a bit more', which they do at the expense of a 22 year old homeless sex worker (we see her laughing with a bouncer outside a strip club so apparently she's fine), and the film doesn't address the fact that the men all get to do what they want and the husband is almost totally absent - a muttered half-apology is all he's held to account for.
Rating: Fine
